Abstract In the field of environmental acoustics, the conventional approach of reducing ‘sound level’ does not always deliver the required improvements in quality of life. Soundscape, defined by the ISO as the ‘acoustic environment as perceived or experienced and/or understood by a person or people, in context’, promotes a holistic approach, regarding sounds as ‘resources’…
Abstract The energy consumption from the building sector accounts for more than 21% of the total in China, where the energy-use intensity of public buildings could reach 3 times that of residential buildings. Energy efficiency improvement (EEI) is considered to be one of the most rapid and cost-effective means for the building sector to achieve…
Abstract Alleviating the urban heat island effect is of great significance to improve thermal comfort, energy saving and carbon reduction, and realize sustainable urban development. At present, several methods are developed to investigate urban heat island effect, including meteorological observation data analysis, mesoscale WRF numerical simulation and remote sensing image analysis, etc. Among them, remote…
Abstract Solar application in buildings is limited by available installation areas. The performance of photovoltaic (PV) and solar collectors are compared in meeting the heating and cooling demand of a residential house using 100% solar energy through TRNSYS modelling of five systems that use air source heat pump and seasonal energy storage as optional assisting…
